STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESS La constitución estadounidense estipula que el presidente debe mantener informado al Congreso sobre el estado de la nación. Por ello, cada año el presidente pronuncia un discurso que es radiotelevisado, en el que recoge los puntos principales de su gestión y las medidas que su administración tiene previsto adoptar en el futuro. STATE SCHOOLS En el Reino Unido hay dos tipos principales de centros públicos de educación secundaria: las “comprehensive schools” y las “grammar schools”. Las primeras fueron introducidas en 1965 por los laboristas, con el fin de democratizar la enseñanza y garantizar la igualdad de oportunidades para todos los estudiantes, cualesquiera que fueran los ingresos de sus padres y su origen social. Hoy en día, el 90% de los alumnos de secundaria asisten a ellas. La calidad de la enseñanza varía enormemente según los centros y es bastante normal que ciertas familias se muden a una zona que tenga una buena escuela. Las “grammar schools”, a las que asisten menos del 5% de los estudiantes, imparten una educación más tradicional y se centran en preparar a los alumnos que tienen previsto continuar sus estudios. Para acceder ellas, los alumnos tienen que hacer un examen a los 11 años. state [steɪt] noun 1 (condition) estado (m) the link between the state of the economy and crime rumours about the state of their marriage the current state of the housing market el estado actual del mercado inmobiliario People are not buying because of the poor state of the economy the precarious state of the country's finances I'd like to know the state of my account if this state of affairs continues si las cosas siguen así it is a sorry state of affairs when ... es una situación lamentable cuando ... state of alert estado (m) de alerta Pete is consumed by bitterness.
